Deeds Laurel Creek Fruited Sour DIPA

TASTING NOTES

The roads Deeds travels in life can sometimes take a surprising turn. A few years ago their Head Brewer Justin Corbitt was wandering around a craft beer conference in Washington D.C. when he saw a familiar face. Lewis McCallister was a friend from high school in West Virginia and he too had followed the call of fermentation. Years had passed but beers were drunk and promises made to one day collaborate. That day has finally arrived. Lewis runs Mountains Walking Brewing Co. in Bozeman, Montana while Justin is here at Deeds. This Fruited Sour DIPA is conditioned on heaps of Lime, Mandarin, and Valencia Oranges, then dry hopped with serious amounts of Citra, Eclipse, and Motueka. They dedicate this beer to a well used back road of their hometown in West Virginia. You may get onto Laurel Creek at the same place every time, but sometimes your destination can be a pleasant surprise!

BREWERY SNAPSHOT

Quiet Deeds was established in 2012 by childhood friends Patrick Ale & David Milstein. Both the guys studied Engineering and always had a dream of owning their own brewery. Like most Uni students, they had zero cash but plenty of beer drinking experience. Not long after they graduated, they started dabbling in the alcohol industry importing international beers with the bigger plan to make enough money to be able to build their own brewery.

DID YOU KNOW?

In 2010 Patrick and David became forerunners of Australia’s cider movement when they introduced Swedish Rekorderlig Cider. They launched first with the highly successful pear cider and swiftly followed it with apple, and strawberry and lime Rekorderlig in small batches. Red Island Group now distributes nine Rekorderlig Cider flavours.
